The sunblock didn’t work that day. The sizzling heat seemed to have partied with us in the streets of Lucban, Quezon. My buddy wasn’t big on hats but he bought one because he could no longer stand the weekend hot spell. We started our day as early as 7AM in Eastwood, where we met Ela, Joy, and the rest of the group, and returned to Manila at 3PM. And, yet, the sultriness had been really overwhelming.

Last April 24, we went on a day tour to 8 Waves Waterpark and Hotel in San Rafael, Bulacan— courtesy of Smart as one of its Fun Familia destinations this record-breaking hot summer. It was a whole day affair, which started as early as 6AM. All we had to bring was our individual carry-on bag with our swimsuits, sunblock, a handy digicam, and a few floaters for Gab.
You don’t have to travel outside Metro Manila, like Subic or Caliraya, to experience bungee jumping. Or, at least, just have that impression that you’re jumping off a soaring structure. We’ve discovered recently that you can do this within the metro, at the bayside of the Mall of Asia. They call it Bungee Fun. I say “impression” because you don’t actually start from the peak of a tall building, bridge, or tower but from a trampoline located at the base of the Bungee Fun structure. You have an adjustable harness fastened around your waist and thighs, and attached to two bungee cords on both sides. Its setup is quite safer than bungee jumping’s.
Brewing Sessions has two new pages, one of which has been discreetly existing on this Web site for the past couple of months. The Cupboards page contains a list of books that interest us and the Hot Spots page summarizes the places that we have visited since 2005. Although we decided to publish these pages, we are still in the process of updating corresponding lists and descriptions. We are getting down on our knees for the eyesore they might bring.
